compilation

Let's face it, with Ebola scares, disappearing planes and riots across the country, the news hasn't been that great this year.

But thanks to some clueless/clumsy reporters and a whole new crop of viral stars, we still have something to laugh at.

Here's a 15-minute mashup of some of the best on-air moments and mishaps of 2014, including the dancing diva Brendan Jordan, Samuel L. Jackson shaming an interviewer for not doing his research and the one and only "apparently" kid.

Not everybody gets into the Christmas spirit each year. In fact, a lot of people can't stand it. If you're finding yourself relating more to Ebenezer Scrooge this year, this compilation is for you. You can find an entire listing of the featured movies and shows at Slacktory.
